…But late is better than never

“When a patient finally comes in, years late, I walk in with a smile and an outstretched hand. ‘Where have you been, stranger? So glad you are here! Tell me, what has happened since I last saw you? I know patients are busy. I know it is not in our nature to think about our health, even though we should. With good health, you can always make more money. With more money, you can’t always buy good health. So the fact you are here is a good thing.’”
